It ran for just three series on Comedy Central but stand-up genius Dave Chapelle’s sketch show remains much-loved, oft-repeated and a big seller on DVD. Its pet topics were sex, drugs, guns, prostitution, racial tensions and the entertainment industry, while classic sketches include A Moment In The Life Of Lil’ John, Charlie Murphy’s True Hollywood Stories, Wayne Brady’s Show, the Wrap It Up Box, blind white supremacist Clayton Bigsby (who didn’t know he was actually black) and squeaky-voiced crackhead Tyrone Biggums. Each show started with a Chapelle stand-up routine and climaxed with a performance by a hip-hop or soul act. I’m Rick James, bitch. Game blouses.
